4.0 out of 5 starsBeautiful, functional, very happy!
Really well built stand. Nicely machined, lovely action on the height adjuster, and does exactly what they promise. Very happy. Would order from them again.

2.0 out of 5 starsNot suitable for the 15" MacBook Pro!
My 15" MacBook Pro keeps slipping off the stand very slowly, but continuously. It already fell on the floor once because of that. Luckilly it had a soft landing, and so nothing happened.

On the box it claims to be suitable for all MacBooks up to the 15" one. Thats definitely not true.

The Hi rise stand is very nice looking and suits the appearance of apple products. Out of other macbook stands I have seen this definitely looks the best. It is a strong support and grips the macbook, allowing no sliding whatsoever. It is easily adjusted, bringing my macbook to the same height as my external monitor. I have to say I wouldn't pay £59.99 for it I think that is overpriced. I was lucky enough to get it for half that price brand new which is about what it should be. But if you want a stunning stand because you have an external monitor and your willing to pay whatever price you can get it for then this is a must have!

As some other reviewers have mentioned the flaw in this otherwise lovely design is that it doesnt hold your MacBook secure. With both my 15" Pro and 13" Air the laptop tends to slip off which is disconcerting as its a good 3-4 ft off the floor when on a standard desk! I have had to use Blu Tak to make sure it holds. Hardly a design feature!

Well made, functional, really enjoy sitting my MBPRO 13" on the stand and using with a trackpad or magic mouse - easy to type for brief periods when it is on the stand, no real complaints - so pleased I am going to buy another for my wife. Sturdy and dependable, I haven't experienced any slip problems, ingenious little stand which I would thoroughly recommend.

This is a neat and functional Macbook stand. It looks great on my desk and helps bring it up to height next to an external monitor. I've put mine at max-height and haven't adjusted it since but the initial adjustment was easy. I have had no issues with the laptop sliding off (Retina Macbook 13"). I am using a bluetooth Apple keyboard & mouse. Would recommend to others.

With this riser for your laptop/ MacBook (for me at least) you get a nice working height with the usual high quality of finish from Twelve south, who definitely mimic the Mac finish well. However the main drawback I have to mention with this stand is the fact that my MacBook has a tendency to slowly slide forward down the stand despite the rubber grips, so a helping hand is required to keep it in place. Other than the above mentioned fault I can recommend this item for it's looks alone and the fact that it blends in superbly well next to a MacBook and thunderbolt display.

Looks good, but too wobbly, no matter how I adjusted the tension. Don't use it all. Ended up buying another one from Amazon (Rain Design mStand 360 Notebook Stand with Swivel for 13 inch MacBook and 15-17 inch MacBook Pro).
